Bio
Hey there. Welcome to my page. I have recently started walking out the path to writing my first novel. To allow myself other creative outlets, I’ll be using this to post some poetry and short stories that may or may not be in future novels.

Heir to the Phoenix Clan
My family has always seemed strange to me. As I grew up, I could get the sense that there was something being hidden from me. Not necessarily anything bad, just a secret that I didn’t seem to understand. Another strange thing is that everyone seemed to be born on one of two days. Everyone older than me had June 21st as their birthday, while myself and everyone younger than me had December 21st as their birthday. As I got older, I saw more and more of my cousins born on my birthday and just saw it as normal until I was in school. Apparently my family is the only one that this phenomenon happens to.

Secret Sociopath
Laying back on the cool, leather couch in a seemingly all beige office, Alice began to weep. James slowly looked up from his note pad and asked calmly, “Let’s go over what happened from the beginning, alright Alice? Now you said you and your fiancé broke up. What would you say led to this event?” Through short sniffles, Alice began, “Well I found out a terrible secret. The man is a sociopath, and clearly a spawn of the devil. I couldn’t stay with someone like that. He’s pure evil.”

Some Glitch
It happened so quickly that I’m unsure that it was real. One moment, I was walking down the cold streets of New York City. The sound of construction. The smell of hot dog water. Then, for just a moment, I felt sand give way under my feet. The warmth of the sun on my face. The sound of waves cashing in front of me, followed by the scent of salt water. For a moment, I felt like I was on the beach of some paradise. I just told myself to keep walking. That it was a glitch caused by stress.

Cracked Eggs into Independence
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn’t put Humpty together again. A rhyme about an anthropomorphic egg cracking and not being able to be put back together, even with all the help in the world. I too would one day realize that cracking eggs would undo me and make me who I am today. Such is life. Sometimes the simplest of tasks have the greatest of impacts. The day I learned how to crack eggs would certainly leave a lasting mark on my life that could never be pieced back together.

Romance in the Sky
“Welcome aboard, this is our nonstop flight from London to JFK. If you look forward as our attendants go over the safety features of the aircraft while we get prepared for takeoff…” the voice of the captain over head started to trail off as Josh put his earbuds in. A frequent flyer, he had heard this time and time again. This was just a normal flight for him and he just wanted to zone out and get some rest as he makes his way home. After his week long vacation overseas, it was time to try and sleep. He knew that he most likely wouldn’t but it was worth a try.
